Hello, recently my hp sleekbook 15 has run into alot of problems and I'm ready to just buy a new computer. The problem is I dont wanna build one, and I want it to run games like minecraft and league of legends while running skype. I've been browsing ebay for some good price pre built pcs and this is what ive found, please do tell me if these are good for the things I wanna do and please keep in mind I am not interested in building a pc.

1st pc - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Optiplex-755-Gaming-PC-Desktop-Intel-Quad-Core-4-GB-250GB-Nvidia-GT430-HDMI-/191803119734?hash=item2ca85b5876:g:E5sAAOSwezVWuqCP

2nd pc - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-M90-Gaming-PC-Desktop-Intel-Core-i5-2-67-Quad-4-GB-250-GB-Nvidia-310-HDMI-/191805904106?hash=item2ca885d4ea:g:W24AAOSwUdlWdKzH

3rd pc - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-M90-Gaming-PC-Desktop-Intel-Core-i5-2-67-Quad-4-GB-250-GB-Nvidia-8800GTX-/191803187705?hash=item2ca85c61f9:g:W24AAOSwUdlWdKzH

The gigabyte one on pcpartpicker is cheaper but it has about a whole page of bad reviews. Gigabyte boards are normally great but it looks like the $30 one has some issues. I mean at this point you could pretty much build a brand new computer pretty much. You could either go 7950 used on ebay or you could go gtx 950 or 960 new

I thhought the 1st one would be better, it has a 1gb video card rather then 512mb the lenovo one has.

Yes. You can upgrade the RAM to 8GB at most. But the GPU and PSU are the first things I'd change.

If you can find a first gen i3 or i5 and motherboard for under $70-80 you might be able to have a decent system. Like this comes with cpu motherboard heatsink and 2gigs of ram which you could upgrade for cheap http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Desktop-Motherboard-DH55TC-Intel-Core-i3-540-3-07Ghz-2Gb-DDR3-Used-/161972424431?hash=item25b64f0eef:g:2xEAAOSwAKxWabm8 only $64 then you could get a gtx 580 http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-580-Fermi-DirectX-11-015-P3-1580-AR-1536MB-384-Bit-GDDR5-PCI-/231844867551?hash=item35fb07eddf:g:v94AAOSwe7BWv4hn

Then you could just get a cheap case like http://pcpartpicker.com/part/raidmax-case-atx249b Then you could get an Antec PSU http://pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-vp450

The 2 gigs of ram is low but if you want to spend another $24-30 you can upgrade to 8 or you can even just add another 2 gig stick later if you want to risk mix and matching.

For HDD just use your old

Thats actully very smart and cost efficient, but I'm not sure if I will be able to put the parts together. Also instead of the gtx 580 could i use a gtx 750 ti? It's a bit more costly but I would rather a nice graphics card, will this card be compatible with the parts you linked?

Could you make a part picker? Case can be the cheapest and ugliest, and the gpu either the 580 or 750 ti

I pretty much listed everything for the best price. Pcpartpicker doesn't look for used parts on ebay and that. The case is already the cheapest also. So all that you really need to do is follow the links that I posted. You could buy the 750 ti if you really wanted to but the 580 is better. If you want to put the funds into a new card I would buy the 760 950 or 960

If I am not able to buy the seperate parts and build it do you know of any really good pre built pc's with a good graphics card for around 200$ similar to the ones I linked in the beginning

Scrap that idea actully here is how the build I might buy is looking -

Motherboard + processor - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Desktop-Motherboard-DH55TC-Intel-Core-i3-540-3-07Ghz-2Gb-DDR3-Used-/161972424431?hash=item25b64f0eef:g:2xEAAOSwAKxWabm8&rmvSB=true

Gpu - http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-580-Fermi-DirectX-11-015-P3-1580-AR-1536MB-384-Bit-GDDR5-PCI-/231844867551?hash=item35fb07eddf:g:v94AAOSwe7BWv4hn&rmvSB=true

case - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156281&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Psu - http://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?name=PS-VP450&c=CJ

HDD - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Seagate-ST3160212SCE-160GB-2MB-Cache-7200RPM-3-5-SATA-Hard-Drive-FREE-SHIPPING-/131353591363?hash=item1e9548be43:g:YOUAAOSwpDdVW7RG

Could you tell me if all these parts are compatible with eachother? And i'm not sure what ram fits with this motherboard so could you find 2x4 for 20$ or less?

If I changed the 580 to a 750 ti would I need to change anything and also do you think this can run day z and h1z1? Also can you take a look at this http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-Custom-Painted-EVGA-GeForce-GTX-750-Ti-FTW-w-ACX-Cooling-2GB-/252278042919?hash=item3abcf17127:g:MvgAAOSwzhVWtLZR it comes with a fan and is only 90$
